Second placed Sheffield shouldn't suffer a lot tiredness after midweek match against Scunthorpe, because made a bit of turnover and some change is expected also for this match.

Only McDonald (midf.21+1 1goal) is a forced absence for them.

Oldham played in midweek, also, and for them tehre are problems in midfield with Taylor (midf. 28 1goal), probably added to already missing Furman (13+2 1goal) and Wesolowski (midf. 21 3goals). Out also def. Black (13).

Oldham drawn against Colchester at home in midweek, but away this team is quite weak with a balance of 3-5-6 16/26 ( seventh form bottom for away performances) and will play with these problems against the stronger home team in League ( Sheffield has 13-2-2 40/18 at home).

Sheffield lost only in derby against Wednesday, against leader Charlton and against Carlisle since the end of november, winning all the other matches, so i think in another convincing performance in thsi round
